STOCKTON – Police have already arrested a suspect in a homicide that occurred late Monday in the 5400 block of Holiday Drive.

A 21-year-old man identified by the San Joaquin County Coroner’s Office as Alexander Centeno, who lived in the duplex on Holiday Drive, was shot around 11:50 p.m. Friends and acquaintances took him to the Kaiser Permanente Medical Office Building on West Lane, but when they realized it was closed, they called 911 for an ambulance, police said.

The man was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Police obtained an address in north Stockton, where they found the 19-year-old suspect and arrested him without incident. His gun was found nearby.

People at the address where the suspect was found called police when the suspect showed up.

This is Stockton's second homicide in 2013. At this point in 2012, there had been seven homicides.
